Default WRX First Drive

Well after bout 8 months I have put the WRX (93) on the road, its not the first Subaru I have ever driven, but its the first of mine, so really gave it some today. Quite impressed its like a little terrier , much different to my GTR32 I used to have.

Its running no boost control, just straight off the manifold for control. So i expect the power to be about 230 ish, (Full decat and induction Kit, Mines ECU) Sort of like the power, but think as ever its got more to give to make it more of a handful.

Next step sorting the boost and dyno to check for det.

New 4 pots are on order , need them.

Will get it on the ramps to see what it is, quite hard ride, no body roll and goes where u point it, Apart from the RA Alu wishbones I dont know whats been done, but i have melted the 215's LOL just now (17")

Step by step hope to have it sorted soon !!

welcome to the world of modding! Always starts by just putting the car up on the ramps to have a look!
